Seed Saving 102: Processing & Storage
September 16 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
$25
Come save seeds with us at Seed Saving 102: Seed Processing & Storage! This is part two of our two part Seed Saving Series in collaboration with LuAnna of Utopian Seed Project. Seed Saving 101 is not a prerequisite for 102.
Using a variety of tools, participants will focus on practical cleaning & storage techniques including winnowing, screening, and wet-processing. In addition to hands-on learning LuAnna will give a presentation on processing and seed storage techniques from managing moisture and temperature to ensuring long-term viability. Whether you are a backyard gardener looking to save seeds from your favorite crop or a community grower, this workshop aims to develop the skills needed to successfully clean and store your future seed harvest.
Expect hands on learning, a take-home presentation, and space for discussion and Q&A. Depending on class size and volume participants may take seeds home.
